When has Brighton (or Sussex) looked it's very best on screen

[Stat Brother]

Like El Pres I have also listened to Kermode giving Brighton a favourable nod in his review of Nick Cave's new film.

It doesn't matter if it's film, TV, advert, or even a promotional video in support of a popular beat combos latest vinyl release, just so long as it's on film.

Who has done the best job of capturing Brighton (or Sussex) on film?

 

[Wilko]

Always liked this video and song. Snippets of Brighton but I like the lighting.

Seem to remember a documentary in the 60s about Brighton,all the gardens were colourful,neat and tidy,middle summer,coppers in white hats,hazy,crazy days of summer...

Can't get YT at work, so it might be what [MENTION=1022]Wilko[/MENTION] has posted above, but Rizzle Kicks - Down with the Trumpets video, shows off the seafront quite nicely.

Mona Lisa does a good job of showing a quite different side of the town.

'The 7:39' was a recent BBC drama I enjoyed that ended at the Birling Gap and captured the emotional significance of the ending really well with the landscape.

Tour of Britain the other week.

It looks very nice in the film The End of The Affair and a few Poirots

This little beauty always hits the spot for reasons unknown...

This. Really well done, and a nice story behind it too I think. The tune is by Cinematic Orchestra, and coupled with the footage, for some reason makes me a little bit emosh (as the kids would say)... Perhaps I am just a duff old sentimentalist...

I always love watching this...

That's cool. Where are you in this? If you're prepared to say.

 

[Notters]

I thought it looked stunning in the ToB Coverage.

Quadrophenia

Apart from the Pelican crossings and yellow plastic bins that weren't there in the 1960s.
